side and bearing pains, and could
not eat nor sleep. When 'Favorita

to be all that it is recommended to

You never see a good-looking

Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip

its age testifies to its goodness.

Kreat posacsslons of literature.
I WAS of a Nottinghamshire fam
ily and educated at Cambridge.
Likewise was I educated In medi
cine, and preferring u ship's surgeon
cy to any preferment ashore, It came
about that after several deep-sea voy
ages I found myself surgeon of thnt
ship, the Antelope, which wns wrecked
in a violent storm on a coast north
west of Van Dlemen's Lund.
Of all the ship's company I alone
escaped to the land, where, In utter
exhaustion, I lay down and fell nsleep.
I awakened to find myself bound hand
and foot, and surrounded by swarms
of the tiniest human creatures. They
brought me food and drink and con-
veyed me to their capital, where the
king, of a majesty a full lialf-lnch
taller than any of his subjects, came
I .with his court to view me.
I In time I learned thnt I was In the
kingdom of the Lilliputians. By them
1 I wns kept a long time In captivity.
I Being ultimately satisfied of the harm-
lessness of my Intent, I also adding
my word of honor to do them no In
jury, they released me, nnd set aside
six professors of educntlon to teach
me their language. For my bodily
sustenance they allowed me a quan
tity of meat and drink suillclent for
1724 of their own people; for so, be
ing exact in their mnthemntlcs, they
estimated the proportions of my bulk
to theirs. Three hundred cooks nnd
one hundred nnd twenty wnlters were
nnmod to dress my meals, two hundred
senmstresses were apportioned to
mako my linen, nnd three hundred
tailors for my outer clothing.
With my wants thus attended to,
I was desirous to be of service to
them. My first service wns not tb
damage their people or their property
as I wnlked abroad, a most likely dan
ger when the men were of such size
that I could accrete two or three of
them In one of my coat pockets. In
walking the streets, were I to step
heavily, there was danger of my slink
ing down large buildings; or, by not
having an eye below me, I could eas
ily trend to death half a dozen of
their cattle.
One day the king, who wns most
friendly to me, came to mo In great
trouble. The emperor of the neigh
boring kingdom of Blefuscu bad
threatened to lny waste the kingdom
of LIHIputla. Tho Blefuscunn navy,
consisting of fifty great ships of wir,
was even then nbout to set sail ; but
I. by wading and swimming, reached
their chief hnrbor where they were
yet at anchor. With my pocket knife
I cut the cables of their fifty ships of
war, and then, tying each ship to a'
piece of twine, I drew them after me
to dry land, nnd so compelled the
capitulation of Rlefuscu.
While this deed redounded to my
glory. It also raised me up powerful
enemies, one being the high admiral of
the Lilliputian navy. Had I wished.
I could have crushed them and their
entire kingdom under my boots, but
there wns my pledged word not to
harm them. So when by secret In
trigue they had me tried nnd con
demned to tho log of my eyes, there
Was nothing loft mo hut escape. I
went to Blefuscu, where I wns given a
great reception nnd where they would
havo me stay; but I wns weary -of
kings and princes, and told them thnt
I desired nothing except that they
would provision for mo a hont, which
I had found drifting on the shore, nnd
allow mo to go my way.
They stored the boat with tho car
casses of one hundred oxen, three
hundred sheep, with cows, hulls, nnd
ns much ready-dresRfd meat us four
hundred cooks could provide. Being

thus protected against famine, I g.
sail on tho third day nnd was plckei
up by an English merchant cnptnln,
who deemed me crnzy when I told dm
my story. Not until I hnd taker sev
ernl head of cattle from my pockets
would he bcllcvo me. To my great
grief, one of the ship's rats carried
off one of my sheep on the wny home.
On renchlng shore I learned that m
uncle John hnd tiled nnd left mo his
estate near tipping, nnd tho same be
ing suillclent to keep my family from
wtuit nnd the lust to wander being
still quick within me, I set oft to sen
once more, this time In the Adventure,
bound for Surnt.
On this voynge, after a great temp
est, we put Into a strange bay for wa
ter. Rambling on the shore, I boenme
separated from my companions and
fell Into the hnnds of some natives
of Brohdlngnng, colossal men, of
whom hardly ono was under sixty
English feet In height.
I wns here put on exhibition, nnd
my fnmo renchlng the ears of the king
nnd queen, they commnnded my pres
ence nt court; and thither I was
brought, In the chnrge of the daugh
ter of one of my captors, n little girl
named Glumdnlclltch, nine years of
age and smnll for her years, being not
above thirty feet In height.
In the train or their majesties I trnv
eled nil over the kingdom, which wns
six thousand miles In length by three
to five thousand In breadth. The cap
ital city was fifty-four miles In length
by forty-five In breadth, n wonderful
city where the king's pnlace was
seven miles around nnd the chief room
therein two hundred nnd forty feet
high, and brond nnd long In propor-'
tlon. The king's stnble was also n
goodly building, housing five hundred
horses, noble creajures of n height of
from fifty-four to sixty feet.
Of tho Lilliputians, I used to say
that they were people without a blem
ish In their persons, nnd the Brob
dlngnng'lans coarse beyond descrip
tion; but later reflection Induces me
to think that the Lilliputians had
blemishes proportlonnte to their size,
the same being too tiny for me to es
timate; and thnt possibly the Brob
dingnnglans appeared more vulgar
than they truly were, their colossal
proportions magnifying every defect.
In some mntters these large peoplo
were at least larger-minded. Thus, In
the matter of whether It was proper
to break an egg on the little or big
end which had almost split the Lilli
putian kingdom In twain as to that
matter the Brobdlngnnglnns would
hnve lost little sleep. I judge this
from a comment by the Brobdlngnn
glnn king on a political matter which
I spoke of In connection with my own
country Englnnd. "It Is tyrnnny,"
ho said, "for a government to requlro
those who held differing opinions to
chnnge or not to chnngo them."
Ills majesty was much Interested
to hear of England; whereat I relat
ed at length her history, which aston
ished him. Ho protested that It
seemed no more thnn u sequence of
conspiracies, murders, revolutions,
bnnlshmcnts, the worst effects thnt
avarice, faction, hypocrisy, hntretl,
lust, malice and nmbltlon could pro
duce. "What a pernicious race of
odious vermin to be allowed to crawl
upon the earth !" ho said ; which In
jurious Judgment of my noble nnd be
loved country pnlned mo exceedingly.
Now while I hnd become n favorite
of n great nation, It wns upon such a
footing ns III became tho dignity of
human kind. I wished to bo onco
more with peoplo of my own mind;
nlso I longed for n whiff .of thnt sea
which looked toward my own land. In
response to my entreaties, I was taken
to the sen coast, - My little nurse
Glumdnlclltch being 111, I wns put In
charge of a page; who left me alone
on the shore while he sought for birds'
eggs. While thus nlone, the traveling
cnblnet In which I lay was seized by u
great bird who took It far out to sea
and then let It drop, nlmost nt tho ex
act moment that an English ship hap
pened by to pick mo up. Thus was
I slngulnrly rescued nnd brought onco
more snfo to Englnnd.
I made other voyages nnd hnd div
ers adventures, n most singular ono
being that of my rescue from n desert
continent by tho people of nn Island
which flew In the air, tho same being
mndo to rise and fnll by menus of nn
Immense londstone. The people of the
flying Islnnd held themselves ns n su
perior race, for no grenter reason that
I could see than that they had ono
eye turned lnwnrd and one turned up
ward. A later voyage took mo to the coun
try of the Yahoos and the Ilouy
hnhnms. The Yahoos, being servile
attendants to the Houyhnhnms, were
of disgusting hnblts, and so much
resembled humnii beings thnt tho
wiso and virtuous Houyhnhnms
took me nlso for n Yahoo even to the
end of my stny with them, a Judg
ment which grieved mo much.
Tho Houyhnhnms, who had tho
forms of horses, hnd tho most sensible
laws of any creature that I ever lived
with. Their abhorrence of mnny of
our human habits was ho deep that
I came In time to havo n contempt for
my own species nnd wished that I,
too, were n Houyhnjinm and be nl
lowed to remain with them; but they
bnnlshed mo from their kingdom ih
ono who might set up for n leader of
the Yahoos and so Rometlmo glvo
them trouble. They allowed me to
build and provision a boat; and o I
pnddled off nnd In tlmo renched Eng
lnnd, where my wife and children
were very glad to see me.

The Housewifes Burden
When a woman is almost distracted from overwork, her homo
is in disorder, crying children, and on top of all is suffering from
backache, bearing down pains, or some other form of feminine ills,
then she should remember that hundreds of women in just her con
dition have been restored to health and regained their youthful '
strength by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
not rest until she has given it a fair trial.

bad with foinalo troublo that I thought
I would havo to bo operated on. I had

times I would have to stop my work
nnd sit down or I would fall on tho
floor in a faint. I consulted several
doctors and every ono told mo tho Bamo
but I kept fighting to koop from having
the ojiorntion. 1 had read ho many
times of Lydia E. Pinklmm'a VegoUiblo
ComjKiund and it helped my HlHter so
